Need the name of back yard tennis game in 80′s?
In the 80′s there was this game with pole that staked into ground and at the top of it there was a long string with a tennis ball attached on the end. Two people could play tennis hitting ball back and forth. There was a spiral at top and winner hit ball it past opponent and circled to top or bottom. ANYONE KNOW NAME OF THAT GAME or IF THEY SELL ANYTHING LIKE IT TODAY? I saw a similar game in the movie kicking and screaming but it had a volley ball on it instead.
Tetherball is a game for two opposing players. The equipment consists of a 10 ft (3 m), stationary metal pole, from which is hung a ball from a rope, or tether. The two players stand on opposite sides of the pole. Each player tries to hit the ball one way; one clockwise, and one counterclockwise. The game ends when one player manages to wind the ball all the way around the pole so that it is stopped by the rope.
An alternate version of the game, Swingball, uses a smaller, softer ball that the players strike with racquets. It can be described as “tether tennis”, and is more popular in the United Kingdom. Swingball has a shorter pole, is portable and the ball flies around the pole at a constant distance from the pole on a helical screw; the game ends when the ball reaches the top or bottom of the screw. Generally the ball used for these games is a tennis ball, and the racquets can come from ping-pong or games with similar paddles.You can not cheat or if you rope then the other person is out no matter what. You are also allowed to bobble the ball.
